So when Sofia got her new bed, I went on the prowl for a new quilt for her bed. I checked out all of the usual suspects but nothing really caught my eye. Then I remembered Etsy. For those of you who don't know, Etsy is a website where people who handcraft things from jewellery and books to clothes and quilts and everything in between can sell their goods. I spotted this quilt and could not stop my mouse from clicking back to it over and over. It was a crib size so quite obviously not the right size for Sofia's big girl bed. Well, I contacted the girl who designed and made it and she agreed to make it in a custom size.
Today, the postman delivered it to my front door all the way from Massachussets (is that the correct number of t's and s's......you would think I would know having gone to grad school in Boston wouldn't you?). It arrived just in time for Sofia's nap and in the box was also a cute wee black and white cat for Sofia, who also took a nap under the new quilt.
Lisa......the quilt arrived in perfect condition and I was shocked when it showed up today. I have put plenty of photos on here so you can see just how perfect it is. I think the shrinkage was a good thing. Thank you for Sofia's beautiful sunny poppies (and the kitty too).
